This could turn into a nightmare, but i thought it'd be quite a good idea.

Basically I thought it'd be nice to have a thread where people can post pics of their pets, themselves, places nearby where they live etc.

I know i like posting pics of the chicks dotted around the forum, and it's nice to be able to look back on them which is much easier if they're all contained in one thread. Plus it's easier for people on dial-up to have one thread to avoid instead of innocently wandering into a different thread and finding it takes half an hour to load because some goon has posted a load of chick photos in there :P

Ace, the beginning of the html should look like this: < a href =" http:

Are you using photobucket? If you are just copy the link from HTML Code underneath your picture, paste it straight here, and it should work...?

Thank you Kate - don't you think Sunny is such a poser? It's hard to get a pic where she isn't posing. Even the one where she's stood on the coop she's stood a little too perfect for it to be natural :P

CC, i thought we already had a photo thread too. There's Wazza's PHOTO Album thread but that's about it. D'you remember the one Diane started (i think) and posted loads of animal pics in? Where has that got to?

Kate - where did you get that banner? I'm confused about the photo - isn't Patrick more gray than that? I'm on sinus meds so I'm not even sure where I am... Help! Oh wait. MOLLY is gray. So - the banner?

So - *snitch* is *nose* CC? I've had a drippy nose since I was born. My sisters used to be able to tell it was me at school without seeing me first. Very attractive. Of course, while cocaine was cool - I fit in a little better. But I've kind of aged back out of that. LOL

There were some really cute bunnies at the garden centre. One of them kept putting its paws on the glass by me and I said "oh look, isn't it CUTE" and hubby said "no you're not having it". He knows me too well!!!!

I'm not lying though! It took me at least several months to persuade her to let me build the chicken's extension, and it's only 1x4 feet - plus it's at the back of the coop under the conifers, so you can't even see it!

Well she was originally on the chair, asleep standing up. I thought it'd make a cute photo, so i grabbed the camera turned it on...and it BEEPED! So Milly woke up in a bad mood, and instead of getting an angelic pic of her sleeping, i got a pic of her glaring instead :D

I wish I could bottle that last round with Ace & I and then Red bringing us back into rational perspective. Being called a banana helped bring me back to earth as well. Its a great example for my clients. But, you had to be there...

The photo looks hilarious to me now. Milly's miffed and, might I say, self righteous, expression and that hook - so out of context - floating in the background.

Here are some pics that my dad was supposed to post in the blog ages ago (he's been promising to do it for the last few years, but can't remember whether he did or not :D). I'll post them here, and then add them to the blog too.

These were taken a few weeks after we got Milly. Unbeknown to us, little Milly used to fly over the neighbour's house (they live two doors down) where they would feed her oatmeal and other treats. To get there she had to cross two gardens, one with a cat and one with a dog!!

We had no idea she used to do this, and so when our neighbours showed us these pics we almost died of shock! Here she is as a baby:

Guess who!

Look how small she was! And to think they sold her to us as a point of lay pullet :-\

A very round baby Milly :D

I'd be a bit wary of that end, too...

They're such fantastic pics, thank you Mary & Rob for sharing them and letting us post them on the site!
